Re: HELP PLEASE "missing operating system".

can you plesase give more info? cause this also happened to me and the reason is my OS files got corrupted.. well if you are using windows 7 i will provide a link to a repair ISO disk you can use UBUNTU - STARTUP DISK CREATOR to use this iso you can also use it to repair and restore your system.. but if you created a backup on windows just press f11 on bootup to access system restore, you can also try pressing f8 and selecting last known good configuration setting. and your pc might boot up. if not press f8 and select repair windows. if it also dont work you should reinstall windows.
